Orb, if you had your time again, would you change any of your VCE subjects? Why?
Personally, i'd drop Chem and pick up something like Economics.
I kept Chem throughout Year 12 because
1- Dad's really good at it and was essentially free tuition
2- Need it as a pre-req for Med
3- Already completed the 1/2 and got alright grades
In hindsight, given I put in virtually no work whatsoever towards the latter half of the year, I'd probably be better off studying something that I enjoyed a bit more. Every Chem class was a bit of a drain for me and concentration was severely lacking.
Hi! I think this is such a fun game
If you weren't studying your current course, what would be your second choice?
What would be your dream uni in the entire world? (If it was Convenient, paid for, you could get in easily etc..)
I'd probably pick up Arts. I completed an Arts subject as a breadth last sem and it was undoubtedly my favourite subject. I feel that the field of Arts really teaches you to 'think', whereas a lot of the other courses offered at Melbourne (Commerce, Science, Biomed) are more practical-based.
A dream choice would probably be Harvard (man that's so stock-standard). Other than that, Duke would definitely be high up my list (famous for basketball in addition to being an elite academic institution)!!
